A couple of weeks ago, we published a blog looking at what we think are the most important considerations when you are starting out on your running journey. However, as we know, getting started is just half the battle. Keeping running is often the more challenging half of the equation. when we start to look at your overall trajectory, and keeping you active in the longer term, certain things become more important, two of which are recovery and mental resilience.
Well, after ‘3 in 30’ and ‘4 in 40’, its time to go a bit longer in our third and final blog of this little series! We wanted to give you plenty of options to mix up your running and keep running with sessions of under an hour. There are plenty of limits on us at the moment and so a short, sharp session is just what the doctor ordered, not only for your physical health but your mental wellbeing as well. As GoRun coaches, Kylie, Sarah, Jason and I hope that these little sessions can keep you running and we would love to hear how you are going with them!
Yesterday we posted 3 runs that you can do in 30 minutes. Today we’re extending that time to a still achievable 40 minutes and sharing 4 of our favourite sessions. There’s a couple of the simple, foundational runs that we build everything else upon, and a couple of cheeky ones that that will burn those legs!
Well that escalated quickly…
I have started several blogs only to have the corona virus situation throw us another curve ball. So I started thinking about what can I write or contribute that has some use to our runners and friends, no matter what the situation? Then I spoke with my friend and fellow coach, Michael. Always a thinker and a man of interesting perspectives, we chatted about the need to be realistic about the situation that we find ourselves in, whatever that looks like.
